Sky Poker Forums is upgrading its look! Stay tuned for the big reveal!
End of the Caption Contest?
Hi all,
We've come to the realisation that the 'Caption Contest' in our blogs section of the forum might be becomming a bit stale...
Therefore we are asking you guys to come up with a new weekly competition we can use in it's place.
Thanks!

Post your one most outrageous (winning) river bluff of the week
You cunningly hide a reference to the legend that is Johnny Ball somewhere in the forum, first person to find it wins the prize, simples!
You provide a poker-related statement (with comedic, double entendre answers in mind) but with a missing word or words.
We provide a missing word or words - the funnier the better.
there's a Caption Contest? no way.
I didn't even know it was still running til this thread appeared lol.
I think it should just be something simple like...
people post up a quote from a poker player of their choice, and Sky will choose the one they think is the best/funniest/most inspirational/most helpful, or just whatever they like.
There are literally thousands and thousands of poker quotes so should easily be able to keep with these theme for a good few months.
Start a forum thread with a predefined maximum number of replies (limit..... see what I did there) get people to post nonsense on a certain topic, random facts, jokes, interesting insights etc....
Whoever makes the final post ie. the limit of the thread, wins the prize.
post the caption contest here. lol
How about " Guess the Pot Size" you could pick a table from Cash or Tourney & we would have to guess the Total Pot Amount that the Player Wins.
We have picked the winner and it is...
DUNMIDOSH
with..
'As the comp starts on a friday. What about guessing the number of entries in the 12k Bounty Hunter and The Heads taken for a tie break the number of entries in the mini could be used'
A simple idea, but a good idea that we may use in the future but tweak slightly!
Congrats to DUNMIDOSH who wins entry into this Sunday's Primo.
We are also going to give donkeyplop a consolation prize for suggesting we put the caaption contest in general chat, because that's exactly what we're going to do!
So donkeyplop wins entry into tonight's 8.30pm £1,000 Bounty Hunter.
Again, thanks to all those that entered, and look out for the caption contest in general chat plus some new competitions coming your way soon!
All I did was put in a suggestion that gave everyone an equal chance of winning a seat into a major tournament.
It will be sad to lose the caption comp! Many times your comments have made me laugh out loud!
But I'm sure there will be competitions in the future more suited to waxing lyrical!
The forum is evolving every day! Give it time! Rome wasn't built in a day!
Thank you Sky for the wonderful prize! and once again I'm sorry my suggestion upset you Herbie!
